Slow Life Fast Bike

Before and Now of my new KTM RC390.

"Now" because primer grey is not the look I'm going for, and I have a few more bits and bobs to do with it.

I've loved my Aprilia RS660 as a track bike but I picked up this smol bike for a few reasons..

1. I can have the Aprilia back as a street bike.

2. I want to focus on specific skills that a smaller displacement bike helps with - cornering techniques, carrying momentum, confidence, etc.

3. More cost effective to maintain, repair and for tyres.

4. Gives me the fun opportunity to wrench and be my own mechanic.

Bumped into an old friend in the desert today. Friends, meet donkey! Funny thing is I remember it feeling like a big challenge to get to it last year. This year it was easy peasy. Progress is amazing! 💪

What's your favourite place to hide out?

Right now it's the desert for me. Job hunting sucks and it feels like so much is going on in the world at the moment. It all makes me grateful for the ability to be some place warm and remote these days.

It's that time of the year.. playing in the desert for a while! It's my favourite part of the winter season and I'm excited to feel the improvements I'm making since last year.

Feeling festive! How's your 25th December going?

I'm walking off one meal to make room for the next one. Beautiful day here in Texas after the thunderstorms last night.

Had to get a pic with the big sign at . This place is such a fun off-road park to visit. Sand, hills, gravel, wooded trails, puddles to play in just 5 minutes from the campground. Heaven!

It's been quiet on the western front, but still alive and kicking over here.

Passed through South Dakota recently but missed out on the touristy stuff and canyon rides. That's the thing about RV life, some times adulting takes priority and there isn't time or mental bandwidth to do things. That's okay, I'll be back for you South Dakota!
